2.5 stars. I was disappointed to receive this book in the mail only to find how incredibly short it was. I do feel the stories were chosen for a shock factor. I’m sure there are women out there that do some of these things but sheesh! I thought 2 to 3 of the stories were funny but the rest were EXTREME!

Ever discovered one of your mates is ok with talking about poop? That’s the comfort this book offers! Fun stories in an illustrated collection with the idea of showing that women are human and therefore, gross. Who knew!

It’s super funny and gross and cute and I guarantee you'll find some secret act in it to relate to.
Clementine Ford, author of Fight Like a Girl and Boys Will Be Boys
This book is a bloody riot!!!

Relevant. Apt. Hilarious ... One of the best things about these shared secrets is that every one is shared with fascination, joy and pleasure in the female body and what it does ... The book is a celebration of women in all their messy glory — and a reminder than women are messy and glorious.

A Girl’s Guide to Personal Hygiene is everything I never knew I wanted: a disgusting, hilarious, and honest book that pays tribute to the female body and all of its habits and suppurations. It is delightfully and uncomfortably relatable and I love it with my whole self — heart, sweat, bowels, and all.
Carmen Maria Machado, Author of Her Body and Other Parties
This book should be tucked under punch bowls at every debutante ball and bundled with boxes of Girl Scout cookies from here on out.

This breezy and hilarious book depicts anecdotes of women and the unmentionable things they love doing with their pubic hair, boogers, bodily fluids, and more — all with the deepest of satisfaction, thanks to illustrator Tallulah Pomeroy's flagrant images of women going unabashedly wild.

standing at only 110 pages, this short novella is a compilation of women’s less-than-hygienic stories from around the world. it was certainly not a marvel of literature, which it wasn’t meant to be, however the over arching message of the abolishment of equating femininity and hygiene was wonderful. definitely good for a short, feminist read to comfort you and make you giggle. especially if you are not a woman :)

This was so funny actually and made me sit and think about my hygiene quirks and what I get up to when no ones looking. Totally worth the read!
